After years of PHP, I came to typescript nearly 4 years ago (for web front and backend development). All I can say is that I really enjoy using this programming language. The type system is just about enough to be helpful, and not too much to be in your way. Compiling the codebase is quite fast, compared to other languages. With a 10x, it will be so much fun to code.

Never been a big fan of MS, but must say that typescript is well done imho. thanks for it and all the hard work!
